What makes you want to slide into someone's DMs and say "I want to know you"? Jackie Nickelberry—Spelman woman, Georgetown Law grad, and the kind of sister-friend who makes you want to be better just by watching how she moves—spills all the tea on living life in seasons and the power of showing up authentically. From entertainment law to leading multi-million dollar fundraisers, from navigating grief with grace to making golf accessible to women of color, Jackie's story is about the messy, beautiful reality of building community one vulnerable moment at a time.
"To have a friend, you have to be a friend," she tells host Maura Chanz, sharing wisdom passed down from her mother that continues to guide how she moves through the world. This isn't your typical networking story. It's about recognizing when your soil isn't fertile for certain opportunities, shifting from grieving death to celebrating life, and why Jackie considers women who don't have female friends a "red flag, red flag." From the profound dream that showed her a community of women would catch her when she needed it most to her philosophy behind her blog Jackie Unfiltered, this conversation will have you reaching for your phone to send that handwritten note (yes, handwritten—Jackie will judge you otherwise) to the women who deserve to know how much they mean to you.
